I think the problem with an internal intercom within a radio us that there
is just one mike circuit. So to have two mikes working they have to be wired
in parallel on the same circuit. This leads to the well known problem of DCs
not being compatible with anything else if connected in parallel. (Reason -
low impedance mike but I won't bore you with details).

So these internal to radio intercoms are OK if there is only one
mike/headset. Otherwise a separate intercom is required. Certainly my KX125
has an intercom internally but I am not using it as I want voice activated
for me and P2 and independent circuits.
